how is the economy doing? joined by alison kosik, new york stock exchange, to talk a little bit about this. alison, the candidates will be pressing each other on the whole issue of jobs. what does the picture look like for jobs? >> you know, with jobs, it is improving slowly, but the reality is it is just not great. we got another little sliver of information today from adp, it said private sector employment gained by 162,000 jobs in september, but this is just a clue of what to expect on friday from the government jobs report. that's really the biggie, the report that counts. it factors in the private sector jobs, it counts government jobs which actually have been shrinking and the expectation is that the economy added 110,000 jobs in september. and, you know, that would be just be okay, because the reality is we have got a long way to go. in early 2009, the economy lost over 800,000 jobs a month. this by the way is the year that president obama took office. compared to that, 110,000 on friday would be good.
